Tatyana Breus (Татьяна Бреус) – End of WW II: Soviet Red Army Enters China & Korea – Defeating Imperial Japan! (10.5.2024)

10/05/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

In May 1947, September 3rd became a working day, although no one formally cancelled the holiday. And on December 23rd, May 9th also became a working day (the day off was moved to January 1st). And until 1965, there were no big celebrations on the occasion of the two days of victory in the USSR: everything was limited to fireworks and unofficial celebrations. When in 1965 – the year of the 20th Anniversary of the Victory – the country celebrated this holiday on a nationwide scale for the first time after the Great Patriotic War, they no longer remembered the second day of the Victory (Over Japan). It found itself in the shadow of the Victory Over Germany, although formally on May 9th all Veterans were honoured: both those who fought in the West and those who fought in the Far East. And over time, May 9th began to personify the Soviet Victory in World War II in general, and almost no one remembered the September date. And if, nevertheless, there was talk about Victory Over Japan, then only September 2nd was mentioned – as the day of Japanese Surrender.

DPRK: Comrade Kim Jong Un Visits Bier of Kim Ki Nam! (9.5.2024)

He looked round the bier of Kim Ki Nam with bitter grief over the loss of a veteran revolutionary who, as a competent official in the Party’s ideological field, had remained boundlessly loyal to the cause of the WPK and devoted himself to consolidating the single-minded unity across the Party and society centred on the Party Central Committee in every way and to the Party’s ideological building and strengthening of its leadership ability till the last moment of his life.

He expressed deep sympathy to the bereaved family members and consoled them.

Remembering the Mighty Soviet Red Army of Peasants and Workers on May 9th – as the “Immortal Regiment” Marches On! (9.5.2024)

A very dear friend of mine forwarded the above video – taken in the City of “Chisinau” – the capital of Moldova! This is the May 9th Victory March of the Immortal Regiment comprised of those who fought, died, were wounded or survived the terrible war against fascism during the 1930s and 1940s! Of course, this war was led by the massive USSR in the East and tiny Great Britain in the West! The British are Celts and do not give-up with a fight. What we lack in size of country we make for in strength of fighting spirit! The unelected Tory Dictatorship we currently have tyrannising the British people (and the world) at the moment are far from being Celts – and are linked quite clearly to Tory and Indian BJP fascism!

USSR: Remembering the Great Working Class Victory of WWII! (9.5.2024)

09/05/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Modern Russians commemorate the sacrifice but not the purpose. Russian soldiers carry the Red Flag but possess no connection with Socialism. The Hammer and Sickle emblem will be seen everywhere throughout Russia – but children are now taught it implies the “Russian race” and “Russian fighting spirit” – when in fact it means none of these reactionary things. Fourteen other countries contributed troops to the Soviet Red Army – which was NOT just “Russian”. Modern (capitalist) Russia distorts as it remembers – merely because its government is afraid that such symbols might inspire another wave of Socialist consciousness throughout the Russian mind and body. The revival of the USSR is just as feared in Bourgeois Russia as it is in Bourgeois America! This is why so many ethnic Russian authors regurgitate the old American prejudice against the USSR – as if such idiocy was entirely their own inventions!

British University Students Support Palestine Against Zionist “Genocide”! (9.5.2024)

“We ask everyone who is taking part to do so with respect, courtesy and empathy,” the spokesperson said.

Students and staff at the University of London have set up a “Liberated Zone for Gaza” on campus stating that the institution was “deeply tied to Israeli settler colonialism” through investments in various companies.

Similar pro-Palestine encampments have been set up at universities in Manchester, Sheffield and Newcastle as well.

Students from the Cambridge Jews for Justice in Palestine group said they “refuse to sit by while our university is complicit in, and profits from, the genocide of Palestinians and we refuse to accept its commitment to murder and bloodshed as the status quo”.

The group’s spokesperson said they were joining “students across the world in refusing the weaponised conflation of anti-Zionism with antisemitism”.

The protests at British universities mirror pro-Palestine demonst

Israel: Anti-Black Racism Continues Under Zionist Regime! (9.5.2024)

09/05/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

The BBC is “banned” from China for continuously publishing unsubstantiated lies and racist misrepresentations. Like most of the British media, the BBC (like the Guardian and the Qatari-owned Al Jazeera) – continuously misrepresents the non-White and non-capitalist world! Every so often, however, the sheer weight of these contradictions of this misreporting takes its toll – and the occasional “true” story penetrates this barrier of falsehood. Below, is yet another “White” (Zionist) racially-motivated act of aggression aimed at Black people currently being used as “paid-slaves” in that part of stolen Palestine currently termed “Israel”! The BBC, like all those other hypocrites, are afraid following the International Court of Justice (ICJ) judgement declaring Zionist Israel is “Guilty” of “Plausible Genocide”!
